Busted Interviews

The Award for Best Interview on the Hills goes to... Whitney Port
Who: Alixe @ DVF
Why: start of the The Hills spin off The City
What: Kelly recommends that Whitney fly to NYC to interview for a job at DVF and to no one's surprise Whitney nails her interview, once again demonstrating her ability to maintain cool, calm and collected. Key line - "I wouldn't have taken this interview if I wasn't serious about it(moving to the City)"
Favorite Moment - the clackity clacks of women's high heels on the DVF stairwell


The Award for Worst Interview on the Hills goes to.... Stephanie Pratt!
Who: Kelly Cutrone, Peoples Revolution
Why: LC recommended her
What: Total Disaster. Stephanie had clearly never watched a previous season of the Hills and got eaten alive by Kelly. Kelly reads between the lines to see that she wants to use her contacts to build her own handbag line. (But really Kelly, what about hte Lauren Conrad Collection? You're not pissed about that?) The whole interview was so painful. Kelly made it Lauren's problem. Brilliant
Favorite moment: When Stephanie asked if the labels Kelly might want her to print out would be sticky on the back

Second Worst Interview.... Heidi Montag
Who: Dean at FIDM
Why: No idea. She was already accepted but meeting with the Dean to discuss her future.
What: Hilarious. Heidi had no desire to go to school and didn't even think to sugarcoat it. When she tried to reason with Heidi and see if she might get started in retail, Heidi didn't even attempt to hide her disgust. No, she does not want to work on the floor. Also had not read the course catalogue, has no desire to do anything but be the fun party PR girl.
Favorite moment: When asked how she was as a student in high school, Heidi responds with, "Oh I dont' know, I didn't really do my homework. I didn't really like school."

Second Best Interview... Lauren Conrad
Who: Lisa Love at Teen Vogue
Why: It was her chance at her first internship, in the one city where anything can happen...
What: Starts off with chaos. LC gets a call just as she pulls up to the Hillside Villas with her hot pink wheelie. She has to dash to Teen Vogue, leaving Heidi behind calling after her, "I'll be at the pool if you need anything!" Lauren is composed, albeit awkward, and seems to handle herself well under the watchful eye of Lisa Love. She tells Lisa, "Teen Vogue, its like, the top. And I man, thats where I get my ideas for things that I do."
Favorite Moment part of the convo:
LL: Can you write?
LC: Can I... write? yeah..?
LL: Well?
LC: Yeah...
